On the Łojasiewicz exponent at infinity for polynomial mappings of ℂ² into ℂ² and components of polynomial automorphisms of ℂ²
A complete characterization of the Łojasiewicz exponent at infinity for polynomial mappings of ℂ² into ℂ² is given. Moreover, a characterization of a component of a polynomial automorphism of ℂ² (in terms of the Łojasiewicz exponent at infinity) is given.
